Now that’s an incredibly ignorant statement from someone who has zero knowledge about Linux.

It was a quote from a person who writes applications used on various Linux distributions... So he probably is speaking from some form of experience. ; )

"It was a quote from a person who writes applications used on various Linux distributions... So he probably is speaking from some form of experience."

Daniel Georgiev founded a company that is trying to sell a product that they want to run on an open source operating system. In other words, they want to profit from the work of others that donated their time and effort to create something which is free for everyone to use - unlike Daniel's program which costs $14.99 for every machine it runs on.

Daniel's problem is that his small company is unable to support the large number of linux distributions he wants his software to run on. If he had written his program as an open-source program he wouldn't have that problem as each linux distribution has a community of users which would have worked with him in finding and fixing any bugs during his program's development.

It's funny how trying to sell software for linux just doesn't work out well. Almost like Karma is a coder.
